Blah.. at least I got good grades during my final semester (6 A's, 1 B, 21 credits) which should knock my LSAC gpa up to like a 3.45. Hopefully the GPA boost will get me in later...

Damn... that really sucks...

Sorry to hear it, Drew. But you're right, an updated transcript with a higher GPA seems like it would make for a great LOCI.

Thanks, and ya I hope it is enough. I think this weekend I'm gonna have to bust out some good LOCI's for Cornell, Penn, and NYU, and then I'll finish them up and send them in once I know my exact updated lsac gpa.

Not sure since my wife has the letter, but I'm guessing on the 14th. Oh well, think I'm gonna take a break from TLS and thinking about apps for a little while... bleh

Any idea on how application to one of the scholars or other programs will affect the review process time-wise? Are the decisions separate (ie would I be accepted into NYU soonish and then find out about the scholars program later, or all at once)?

I assume it'll take longer, but the admissions woman I spoke to wasn't terribly helpful.

looks like more or less just ED people. we are not faring too well. really sad to hear about your decision drew -- i was rooting for you too. maybe they're just going to admit all of the deferred EDers later on... to make the decision even more exciting. (and tell lieut kaffee that it was all a big joke and he's accepted with a full scholarship.)

I have a friend who was accepted to NYU and hasn't heard from the specific program she applied to (cant remember which one)... It didn't seem to affect her decision time at all.

Sorry, you're going to have to keep tweaking out.. I applied for RTK, but got my admissions decision just a month after applying.
